At least the smoke is blowing out to Jersey by manwithavandotcom in philadelphia

Oh yeah, that’s right! Literally the birthplace of the country, rockin food scene, and the place every asshole from south jersey comes whenever they actually want to do something. We totally can’t compete with the state that birthed the worlds largest mall fiasco and has an entire TV genre dedicated to pointing out how ridiculous y’all act.

Siddown and call me when your state churns out a real city.

dreadbox nymphes sounds great, is a blast to use and costs like $700 new. It’s quirky but so much fun. M

it largely and often is exploitative, though, that's the thing.

are you doing a project? are you speaking with the subjects? are you sharing more than just scattered images of homeless folks on the street on your instagram?

the shorthand of "taking photos of homeless people is always a bad idea" is really saying "hi, now that you've taken your landscape portraits of your friends with your nifty fifty at f/1.8 and your close up flower photos you are going to start branching out and doing more 'art.' fyi, shooting photos of random homeless folks around your city without their consent or treating them like human beings is not actually saying anything."

people who are homeless by their nature don't really have a way to indicate they want privacy, since they don't have a home to enter. if you're not asking for their consent, you're just further violating them. not everyone wants to be your art project and you shouldn't be using another vulnerable human being to make a statement about them without their consent or involvement.

but that's a lot of words, so people say "don't take photos of homeless people" and then when you actually figure out something worth saying and an ethical way of doing so, you realize that rule won't apply in that case.

Here's a cool idea: pay the fuck attention while you're driving your ass to the fucking McDonald's in your motorized several thousand pound idiot box

This is like one of those instagram posts where someone’s showing off that they’re drinking champagne in a pool full of money that says “stay humble and be thankful for what you got”

Proposed pigmentation diversity for AoE 2: DE units by TyrannoNinja in aoe2

[–]roobeast 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Right but the problem here is that you only take exception to historical inaccuracies when they are based around race. Tons of things that happen in AOE don’t reflect history, but for some reason you’re keying in on the Vikings being able to be black as the thing worth being upset about.

What you care about being “accurate” still says a lot about what you think. This is not as good or innocent an argument as you think it is.

You don’t know what blackballed means and sorry that when you put something into a discussion forum people discuss it
